《Adventures of a Reluctant Pacifistic Monster》Ch. 3 The Adorable Quick Toed Porcupine
Advertisement
In a small dark cave, hidden away by fallen tree leaves, there was a small creature that interrupted the natural tranquility as it began to stir. As he came to, he started to feel the soft dirt under his body. That made him stretch his body and open his little eyes.
‘I hate that lunatic.’ Was his first waking thought. ‘I know that lunatic was messing with me; he could have kept me there for as long as he wanted! If I ever see him again… or hear him again, I’ll…I’ll… Well there’s nothing much you can do to a god. I know, I’ll just complain until he gets really annoyed, that’ll teach him!’
‘Ok, enough with the pettiness, I need to move on. It looks like I’m finally in the new world, but where am I though? This feels like a cave, it’s small but nice and cozy, it’ll make a great base for now. Well I think I’m relatively safe for now. I should really check what that lunatic did to me, now that I have some time. So, all I have to think is “status” right?’

‘Wow… there’s no words… almost. There’s just so many things I want to ask, like WHAT THE HELL is up with my name!? How old is that lunatic, five!? And I guess the child also added the pristine points system at least, not that I’m going to use them.
‘Alright never mind that. Next up, my race. Why did adding the word adorable raise my rank from G to F? Come on! Can I at least get some more information!’
Adorable Quick Toed Porcupine (F)

‘I was right, the fortune skill is totally going to be a huge pain in the ass. And I guess I was also wrong; the adorable skill is also going to screw me and make me a target for monsters.’
After letting out a sigh in resignation he tried to look on the bright side of things. ‘Come on man, stop being so negative. The skills might have their drawbacks but at least the benefits look amazing, plus with the combination of the vegetarian title and healthy digestion skill I can slowly grow stronger without having to fight monsters.’
‘Alright I think I checked everything, all that’s left is to finally check out the system store. That’s what started this whole 777 chaos and forcing me to meet that immature lunatic. I don’t really care about unlimited power; I can settle for the strongest in the world. I mean how is that not enough for some people? Now let’s see what goodies we have here.
‘Alright, store open.’

Hello!!!
How are you enjoying your new life!!! Having fun yet!?
If your seeing this, it means you tried entering the filthy store.
But you don’t have to worry, I did you the favor of locking it and…
You won’t ever have to worry about it again!
Wow I’m such a nice guy, your so welcome!
Anyway, just say Pristine store to open the good store!
Bye! Bye!
‘FUCK! That lunatic screwed me again! I just wanted to live a good and easy life! What’s so wrong with that!’ As he was hit with a wave of depression, he just closed his eyes and let his body go limp. He lied there for a few minutes, just letting his dream of an easy life die. When he was finally done with his self-pity, he opened his eyes once more.
‘Whatever, I’m done. Let that lunatic do what he wants. I’ll just roll with the punches. I think it’s time I finally explore this new world I’m in. I’ll open the stupid store later.’
As he threw the bad thoughts to the back of his mind, he started to get exited at the thought of his first journey out of the cave.
‘ALRIGHT! Time for my first adventure! Should I give it a name? It’s my first time exploring this world, this is an important moment so I should totally give it a name. Oh, ok how about…’
‘Out of the Darkness and into the Wild; The First Great Exploration of Mr. Pine!’

Valor and Violence
Valor and Violence is a series of short stories following different, yet all equally colourful, characters set in the same world. Birth of a Legend, the first short, follows Captain Erskine Erwell, a newly promoted Captain in the Calandorian Royal Navy, charged with protecting his people from all who would do them harm. Great news for the Calandorian citizens, bad news for the Skjar reavers that ravage the shores in search of slaves. But when a small reaver fleet slips the net and escapes to the southern jungles of Marduk, Erwell must fight a war on two fronts; one against the raiders, and a far more difficult war against the hostile landscape. If he can't find allies in this strange land, he may end up being the one in need of saving. The first part of the second short story will be uploaded on Saturday, the 11th of June, following Ferez Ahud, an aspiring young battlemage charged with the unsavoury job of 'terminating' a rogue member of his college. But how this nobody of a mage became a fugitive remains a mystery, and when the answer is discovered, the tables are turned and the hunter becomes the prey. I'll be uploading chapters of more in-universe short stories each week or as close to, work permitting. Content Guidelines: course language and violence
